This plane’s last-second (non) landing at Heathrow in high winds is surely the most terrifying thing you’ll watch this week
You don’t have to be a nervous flyer to feel your butt cheeks involuntarily clenching (too much?) watching this.
It’s a Boeing 777 landing – or rather, not landing – at Heathrow in high winds (good day, Storm Bert, or is this one Storm Conall?) and it’s surely the most terrifying thing you’ll watch this week.
The video’s from the good people of Big Jet TV who are very good at this sort of thing.

Currently looking for my stomach in lost luggage.
And just a few of the many comments it prompted.
Whoahh! It just hovered like a helicopter. OMG

I pray to one day be as enthusiastic about something as the person talking

Incredible. The pilots kept their heads, that's for sure.

Kudos to the Pilot. This could’ve gone wrong in such horrific manner. Flying is getting scarier.

I’ve been on a plane that’s done that before it’s a bit crazy
